MK Pictorial 2/26 - Ferry, Monorail, Orbiter, 20k before/after, poo + more!

Nice update.

I've always seen at least one cast member at the automated ticket machines when they are uncovered. So it's not too un-Disney like.

The beams that you see in front of the clock on the castle are for a large magic mirror that will be placed there for the Celebration.

Beam Question

I know in one of the picture links the person was wondering what the four beams were on the castle and they are what the mirror will be attached to for the showing of all the castles around the world. I know this since on of my friends is a manager at World Showcase at Epcot.

Terrace

I hope they aren`t going to stop us using the terrace to watch Wishes, it`s a great place to relax after a long day and enjoy the entertainment.
Love the photos.

Wow the 20K area really has changed. It is a lot woodsier feel. I thought the tropical looked so good

I have to say I much prefer the Woodsier theme. As much as the 20K tropical lagoon them was beautiful, I never really thought it meshed well with the rest of Fantasyland. The new temperate landscape fits much better with the fairytale/storybook feel of the rest of the area...

does anyone have a clue when all this Monorail mayhem is supposed to wrap up? Im going the end of March and I am praying I won't be waiting in that ferry line since we're staying at the Polynesian. ( If it is that bad in Feb., just imagine waht its going to look like Easter week!!!) Also, some one else asked this before but what is going on at the Terrace? The castle looks cute...hope the characters dont throw it overboard. The hub looks so weird without the curbs...but atleast I wont trip over them anymore...ive done that more times than i would like to admit to. Have a magical day.

You shouldn't have any trouble since you will be using the resort monorail. That one operates as normal even with the construction. As for the terrace, it's becoming a noodle station. I think it's getting painted right now.
